Conference on Environmental Law and Regulation in Ontario 2011

The Canadian Institute’s Conference on Environmental Law and Regulation in Ontario will provide procedural, operational and administrative details that you need in order to meet your environmental duties and regulatory responsibilities moving forward. This will include the now available operational details of the Green Energy Act. Understanding these details will allow you to meet the regulatory requirements of the renewable energy approval process, negotiate the changes to the environmental assessment provisions, and explore business opportunities under the Act. Similarly, just as the Green Energy Act triggered a hurricane of new wind farms and other renewable energy projects, the province’s new Water Opportunities Act could do the same for the clean water sector.

The province of Ontario has also taken the important next steps in streamlining and revamping its certificate of approval process. Attend the conference and learn the long promised reforms, understand how both new and existing certificates will be processed, and receive tools for establishing appropriate internal protocols for applications.
